The Prophets challenge us to be Holy as God is Holy, knowing all the while that it is impossible for us to be that Holy. Unfortunately, this impossible goal often keeps us from becoming the people God has created us to be. We simply give up, thinking, “what’s the point of even trying?”
But Jesus steps in and reminds us that what may be impossible for us is possible when we allow God into our lives. We have been created to be more than we think we are possible of being, and when we take His hand and go where He leads, the impossible becomes a reality.
Reach out and trust. Have faith that you are worth more than you think. And let God’s love lead you to that peace that passes all understanding.
With this peace powering us forward, we can not only learn to forgive ourselves, but we can learn to forgive others as God has forgiven us. Pass it on.
